Cheapest you've seen them? Must have missed the deal when they were £120 at Currys over a year and a half ago! Surprised they have held their value for this amount of time.
The official handle bar mounts were also £1 in currys recently (some stores may have stock left near the til)> i bought a few of those in South Ken the other day

not the premium pack though and nowhere near the value and bargain that this deal is

I've been on Ebay and most TomTom Bandits with the premium Pack are a lot more expensive. The few that are cheaper are seller refurbished. I personally would prefer to buy it new

is this a car cam? with TomTom branding i thought it was an in-car product.
looking deeper it looks to be a GoPro wannabe.

Does it have European maps and speed cameras??

you know he would have set the deal if there was one the same but cheaper, why do you think he provided no link?

Had this camera for over a year now, absolutely amazing piece of kit. The features and app are miles better than GoPro, though its very hard to find cheap third party for it. I've resorted into making a lot of my own rather than paying the absurd prices tom tom ask for. Heat added

That was camera only, no pack's

it's a shame that the gopro accessories are going to be incompatible. Not really a deal at this price anyway. So cold for two reasons - expensive as is, even more expensive as a system.

It comes with an adapter so that you can use the Gopro mounts/accessories with it.

Go pro accessories are compatible using the attachment which comes in the box!
I bought mine from here last month - sold out now.
Great picture, self editing, large but solid quality cam which inbuilt USB for plug and recharging
Great bit of kit - I've been using for about 15 months in all weathers.
I did have to have the batt stick replaced under warranty last month. Premium pack well worth money if you need dive lens, remote control and selection of mounts including go pro convertor.

You obviously dont understand frame rates.

Amazon had it at this price for at least a month over Easter - bought one and used for a month but fell apart. Amazon refunded and now looking at what to get instead - camera was very good and happy with quality, just not ideal that the batt stick piece fell apart. Might just be my luck!
This is a good price

This was around £170 with £70 cashback the other year, I missed it but just cant jump at this sort of price! :disappointed:

With the Premium pack too? That's an amazing price! Its a shame that I missed it.

It was actually £179.50 to buy from Currys with £60 cashback making it a net £119.50 and one of the best deals of 2015

"Records up to 3hrs non stop in Full HD"
But I thought it's Full HD isn't 1080p but 4K? When Full HD no longer means it's Full HD...

Full HD is 1080p. 4K is UHD 'ultra high definition'

I've had the camera for 6 months now. Solid piece of kit. I get better video than the gopro 5 black and im running at 720p 60fps.
I use mine for mountain biking so it has endured some whallops.
I recently bought a gopro chest mount and it fits great, albeit upside down. But you can rotate easily!
Only let down on this 'ACTION CAM' is windnoise. Go pro trumps the bandit on that.

I don't? Gee.. well let's see ... my camera does 25 FPS in 4k. 4k video you download/stream/bluray is in 24/25/24.999 FPS. I've literally never heard of such a **** framerate as 15FPS in 4k..
A very long time ago, like hundreds of years ago, we decided that in order to show full motion, you need 24 FPS.
Please... tell me.. what don't I understand?
It's low powered, it does only 15FPS which will not present fluid motion. What's to not understand? It doesn't even do full motion frame rate.... I think YOU don't understand frame rates. Having been a video editor for 20 years, I think I know a fair bit about frame rates and if you think 15FPS is sufficient, then go ahead and buy...oh wait... you did... probably why you won't admit it's an expensive lemon and think it's awesome...

That was the premium pack. The standard one was even cheaper - I got one of both and sold them on eBay

I have this, note that it is not actual 4k due to being 15fps

You don't have to film in 4K, most people wouldn't anyway even if the frame rate was higher. 1080p at 60fps will be perfectly acceptable for everyone's eyes. I tend to use 720p.

But that's not what the video editors comments were about

I film in 4K so I can cut it down to 1080p and cut / crop images without loss of resolution.
It is WAY better to film much higher than you will actually use...... also I do film in 4K to preserve it in 4K master, even if the output shared/youtubed will be 1080p. You can't do **** with 15FPS. Its about suitable as a CCTV device at this speed.

I was fortunate to get the premium pack cheap. been using the camera in the car and on the motorbike since.
Daytime quality is excellent night time not so good.
The extras in the prem pack may be of some use, the added mounts certainly are and the usb power lead would be good to take timed still pics over a long period possibly or for in car on a journey + 3hrs. The added underwater lens is a must if you want to use it in water.
Spare batteries are a bit pricey but even after getting mine in 2015 the battery seems to last just as long approx 3hrs @1080/60.
Its good for what it needs to do although some seem to think an action cam should be capable of filming the next Star Wars movie it really depends what you want to do with it.

The first comment which was, '15 FPS in 4k LMAO. Yeah great camera...' looks more like a young child wrote it so it probably didn't warrant any sort of reply from anyone to be fair so he/she can count themselves lucky in that respect.
To imply that this is not a great camera purely because of the 15fps at 4K is a ridiculous comment and I really hope people don't listen to eejits like that as there are plenty of them on here! :smile:
